the plate girders are used in important structural systems. the earlier design of plate girders was restricted to their critical bukling capacity. experimental and theoretical studies show the plate girders with vertical stiffners can carry load over than their critical buckling loads and then in modern design codes is permitted to use post- buckling capacity of them. in this case the out- of- ...

The rate of a network code is the ratio of the block sizes of the network’s messages and its edge codewords. The linear capacity of a network over a finite ring alphabet is the supremum of achievable rates using linear codes over the ring. We prove the following for directed acyclic networks: (i) For every finite field F and every finite ring R, there is some network whose linear capacity over ...

experiments were carried out to observe the influence of loading type on concrete beam specimens. beam specimens made of similar concrete mixture with the same geometry were tested under three point static loading and low velocity drop weight impact loading. load – displacement behavior, absorbed energy dissipation capacity, stiffnesses, failure modes of beam specimens were obtained and discuss...

Energy Packet Network (EPN) consists of a queueing network formed by N blocks, where each them is one data queue, that handles the workload, and energy packets energy. We study an EPN model start transfer. In this model, are sent to queue same block. An packet routes workload next block if not empty, it lost otherwise. assume queues have finite buffer size arrives system when full, jump-over bl...
